The Struggle of a Child
Afternoon activities part 3
"Sister" called my sister smiling. "We're in love to play?" My sister asked me.
"Sister doesn't know," I replied a little confused.
"Why are you confused and don't know?" asked my sister a little disappointed walking closer to the door.
"Already! Go play! But don't forget to pick up our clothes on the clothesline!" my mother told me we were collecting garbage in the backyard.
The rubbish that was scattered was now clean on the broom by our mother continued. The dirty page also looks beautiful when viewed by the eyes. From the corner of the yard close to the kitchen door now there is not a single piece of trash located. Even small plants look clean.
I who walked around the kitchen room saw my mother who was busy with her activities. I saw him quote the trash and throw it away. "Liyan, later if Mom's not home. Don't forget to sweep the yard collect it like this and throw it away with this club," said my contact mother who found out I was standing by.
I heard it. "Snakes?" I slowly asked myself.
"What is a club, brother?" my sister whispered in my ear.
I turned my head. "Sister doesn't know either" I replied.
"Why didn't Big Brother just ask directly ?" my sister's advice asked.
Suddenly I raised a little head looking at my sister who gave me advice. I then looked at her and saw my mother carrying the trash.
The trash he threw out and collected it and then he burned it in the garbage dump.
"My sister's advice is right too" I said quietly to myself. "Ana, you're right too. Brother is also curious, what is a club?" I said looking at my sister.
My sister immediately knotted sweetly towards me after hearing what I said. "Then ask, brother," urged my sister. "Let's know, brother." My sister enthusiastically forced me to ask immediately.
Before I ask my contact mother. I took a moment to look at my father. My father who had not spoken a word made me curious. Slowly these eyeballs also highlighted my father who was so anxious that my father quickly tidied up his clothes. I who was curious about my father canceled my intention to ask at my sister's request.
"Ana, Big Brother didn't want to ask Mom that," I replied, rejecting her briefly.
"Well, why is that, brother?" ask my sister in astonishment.
"So, I want to ask Dad" I said . I walked right away.
"Say to Dad?" My sister was confused to know. "What do you want to ask Dad?" asked my sister confused while looking at my father.
My sister walked after me who had walked over to my father. When my sister and I met from a distance not too far away. I, who wanted to ask my father, got a hint from my sister to be careful.
Shhhhtt ! I told my sister to shut up and to squint my eyes so my sister would calm down.
I was standing right near my father's room. Neutralize yourself to feel calm. I looked at my father's weary twilight face and was shrouded in anxiety. "Well, what are you looking for?" ask me with a slow tone of voice.
"Dad ain't looking for nothing!" my father answered, focusing on seeing the mat he had tidied up. My father who did not care about me who was standing nearby immediately stepped to the side precisely to go to his wardrobe which was near my sister.
My sister who saw my father also looked at me. "What did Dad say, brother?" asked my sister who tickled her heart for seeing my father who was so indifferent when I asked.
"There's nothing" I replied.
"Eat it Brother! No need to ask Dad," said my sister softly looking at me.
"Sister just wanted to make sure" I said next.
"Sure what, brother?" ask my sister to investigate.
"Sister wants to know. We're either at Father's mercy out or not" I said with a scroll of confusion.
"Yes, but Dad just answered that there was nothing," I complained as I stared softly at him.
"Sister, don't give up! Let's try it again! Who knows? I'm listening to it." My sister encouraged me and invited me to return to seduce my father so that we were loved out of the house, just to play.
I who stood there just shook my eyes to see my father who was ready to make his bed and clothes hanging. It felt so hard for me to seduce my father who was firm in giving a decision. My father was always strict and never messed with what he said. I never denied what my father told me.
As much as possible I live it even though my heart is in conflict. The first child of my father. I should be able and should not complain even though I know that it is burdensome for me to play along with my friends.
I have to be both a child and a brother who can protect his sister. I never rested to carry out as my father commanded. I've always kept it up to my father's promise. My promise was never to mess with my dad once I said I'd do it.
Same with my father's harsh prohibition against us. A ban that no longer allows us to play freely outside the home after repeated mistakes due to our negligence who returned home from school late to home.
Since then, we have never played outside the house, as usual. My sister and I just spend time in the room playing as they are.
Sometimes my cute sister brings out a thousand ideas to drive away the burnout in the house. He sometimes becomes a clown. She sometimes also acts as a mother on her cute doll. While I was busy with myself accompanying my sister who was playing.
I who never got a chance to play a doll even had it just smiled to see my sister who petted her doll. However, I didn't have to speak any language to my father to reveal that I wanted a doll, like my sister.
I who is older than my brother must be clever to understand the finances of my father who is a paddle pedicab bearer. Seeing my sister happy I was so happy.
I'm still unmoved to see my father has not dared to ask permission to play outside this afternoon. However, due to the insistence of my sister who continues to undermine me, this leg is emboldened to step back. "Dad, may, yes! We played outside for a moment" I begged my father.
My father came out of the room and put on some nice clothes. "Dad really doesn't want you guys playing outside anymore" my dad said firmly. Because if you're out, you don't know the way home." My father glanced at my sister. Moreover, this is because you have never been outside all this time, surely you two will be crawling somewhere," continued my father walking to pick up shoes.
I who heard the reason my father turned my head saw my sister who was listening while standing up. My sister who looks disappointed reflexively rolls her eyeballs look at the wall and looks down with tears that invite in the eyes.
"The two of you are the same now" said my father. "If you have been given the flexibility to play outside the house. Until your Maghrib is still outside." My father rolled his eyes at me holding his shoes. "So, I'm annoyed to see you... ." My dad looked at me more and more. "... who can't control your sister."
"Let's just love, they came out for a while. To play," cut off my mother who stepped in.
My father and I turned their heads to see it. "If this man is loved out! No one's going home, if not in search." My father sat in his shoes. "In the meantime, I'm going to go out now," my father said, seeing our mother who rushed to get a towel. "They're bored at home in brackets." My mom took the soap and took it away.
My father immediately turned his gaze around after my mother continued us to disappear from behind the door. "Yaaa, listen to your mother's words. So, I let you guys out of the house. But remember! Play around the house. As you lift up the clothes on that clothesline!" My father walked to the door and glanced out as a sign that my father saw a clothesline.
"Yes Dad, we'll pick him up," I answered looking at my pajas sister.
"All right," said my father in reply to my words. "Now you go first." My father disappeared immediately.
After I saw my father disappear. I also approached my sister. "Ana, let's play!" take me by looking at the heat on my sister's face.
I walked out picking up clothes hanging on the clothesline first. "Sister, where are you going?" ask my sister to come closer to me again.
"So don't want to come here" I replied walking closer to the clothesline and stopped . "Sister told me to take these clothes." I also pulled one by one from the clothesline.
"Ooh!!! Now I've been obedient to that woman" my sister said.
